How do I import certificate (.CER) in IIS

I have created certificates based on this tutorial:

http://ondrej.wordpress.com/2010/01/24/iis-7-and-client-certificates/

Then I have imported "MyPersonalCA.cer" on IIS host server based on this tutorial:

http://www.networksolutions.com/support/installation-of-an-ssl-on-certificate-microsoft-iis-7-x/

I had to import the certificate via MMC, because IIS is giving me an error:

"Cannot find the certificate request associated with this certificate file. A certificate request must be completed on the computer where it was created."

As stated this is a known bug, but i cant get pass the error.

I have imported certificate in Certificate (LocalComputer) snap in and provided a friendly name. It all looks ok.

But i still cant select the certificate on my webpage binding in IIS when trying to enable SSL.

EDIT

Ok I went as suggested and issued the .CER file via CertAuthority. On another machine I have installed Windows Server and CA. I have created a request in IIS and issued myself a .CER file. This file I can normaly import to Windows7 IIS.

But now I want to create client certificates. The certificate is missing PVK file and i cant create client certificates as described in the first link.

Will post another question ...

System: Windows7 Home Premium SP1 32bit,IIS 7.5

Can someone point me to the right direction on this?

You may have to reissue your cert using a new CSR check out the following link. It is similar to the directions you have already followed but with a little more instruction to getting around this error.
